Personality: Maddy is definitely a bit odd in comparison to a normal male, but if you were to tell him that he might stutter out the question of 'What is normal anyway?' His timidness tends to get the better of him, causing him to cancel plans, play with the animals if ever dragged to a party or social event, or typically fading into the background. There are however a few exceptions. He can become excited and energetic if offered to play games, show off some tricks, or while he is at work in his local coffee shop. He loves making latte art consisting of rabbits, and hats, and roses, or flowers to help brighten the days of his customers. Their smile brings him joy and often times can cause him to blush with embarrassment if praised.

History
Biography
The only thing Matthew was found with was a hat slightly too large for him with a paper tucked inside the outer band reading '10/6'. It was believed that this was the child's birthday and thus that is what was written on his documents. As time went on Maddy began to grow into his hat, taking car never to ruin it and eventually finding a note that was folded into the inner lining. "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" Was this a clue towards who his parents were? Did that mean at least one of them didnt want to see him leave? That question was never answered as the years passed by. Countless children were adopted away and anytime someone would look his way he would ask them "why is a Raven like a writing desk?" To which the couples would laugh and call it cute then move on to another child.
The years progressed and Maddy grew older, and more timid, a result of abuse from one of the caretakers of where he resided. She believed children shouldnt be seen nor heard, not unless spoken to, developing a slight speech impediment in him which causes him to stutter in situations where he may try to speak up in fear. He began to keep to himself, mumble, and do what he could to help pass the time by. Kids at school called him weird and took pleasure in hiding around corners just to scare him and make him run or cry.
There was however a kind soul in his life, his art teacher who believed he had the ability to express himself in other ways. She would keep him after school under the guise of tutoring when in actuality he would be learning to paint and draw and express himself without the need of words. She bought him pencils, colored pencils, a sketchbook and then later a magic kit he had spoken about before. All of this was kept at the school where he could practice freely without the caretakers throwing them away.
At the age of 18 he graduated from school, taking with him his belongings, and finally leaving the orphanage where he'd seen so many people come and go in his life. He got a job as a barista at the local coffe shop, putting his skills to good use by making latte art for the guests who came in. He was allowed to room with a sympathetic coworker who helped him out when he first left, and gifted him a cat when he finally found his own apartment to live in. Maddy named the cat after her, Carroll, and continued to see her at work, playing darts on their breaks as they waited to get back to work. Years of playing and Maddy has found he has quite the eye for accuracy.
He still practices his magic, that's neve stopped, but it's at home when he's alone or if Carroll is over to see what new illusory thing his mad mind has ce up with. Maddy just turned twenty-one, spending it with Carroll, two cupcakes, a tea party and movies on the couch. His life may not be perfect, but neither is he, and that's ok.
Do They Remember Anything?:
Maddy was six years old when he was made to jump realms. He has little to no recollection of the events that transpired, or who his parents are. For the first few years (until the age of 9) he had a reoccurring nightmare. He would be in an octagonal room, old and decrepit but no trace of dust anywhere. Each paneling of wall had doors of various styles, designs, and sizes but they would all be locked except for one. That door would lead him into a forest of mushrooms and creatures that were more literal in design. But try as he might, he could never enter the forest, doomed or watch it through a door half his size and just sit there and cry until he awoke. He still has that dream sparringly, but it is now seen as a manifestation of his anxiety and he believes it's a remnant of feeling trapped within those orphaned walls.
